Su Fei all agreed, then stood up to leave, preparing to go to the Imperial Household Department to handle the documents for title registration and house handover.
When we walked out of the Pacification Office meeting hall, the morning light just fell on the bluestone slabs of the courtyard, making the surrounding flowers and trees particularly bright.
The title of viscount and the single-family house are just accessories on his spiritual path.
He still knows this clearly.
His real goal is always to improve his own strength.
Su Fei left Pacification Office, changed to a fast horse, and headed in the direction of the Imperial Household Department.
Imperial Household Department is located on the east side of the imperial city. It is the core organization in charge of royal property and palace affairs. On weekdays, most of the people who come and go are princes, nobles and important officials of the court.
The guards at the door are all tall and straight, with sharp eyes, and they carefully check everyone who comes in and out.
When Su Fei turned over and dismounted, showing his Imperial Guard Thousand Households Officer waistband and the copy of Imperial Decree that His Majesty had rewarded yesterday, the eyes of the guards at the door changed instantly. The original serious look immediately turned to respect. The leader of the guards quickly stepped forward and saluted with his hands clasped in fists.
"I have met Mr. Qianhu at the end of my life. I wonder what business you have here today?"
"According to His Majesty's decree, I am here to handle matters such as title registration and house handover."
Su Fei said calmly and handed Imperial Decree over.
The guard commander took the bright yellow Imperial Decree, glanced at the words "Viscount of Eternal Peace County", his eyelids twitched, and he quickly returned it with both hands, his tone becoming more polite.
"It turns out to be Viscount Su. Please come in quickly. I will inform you of the person in charge."
After that, he personally led Su Fei inside. The Imperial Household Department officials he met along the way saw that the guard commander was so respectful to Su Fei.
They all looked sideways, secretly guessing who this young Imperial Guard was.
Imperial Household Department's service hall is spacious and bright. The bookshelves on both sides are filled with various documents and files. Several Imperial Household Department principals in blue official uniforms are working at their desks to handle official business.
Upon hearing the announcement from the commander of the guards, Director Li, who was in charge of the title registration, immediately put down the pen in his hand and walked out quickly with a warm smile on his face.
"Viscount Su Your Majesty is here. If you are far away from us, please take a seat and someone will serve you tea."
Su Fei didn't beat around the bush, and after sitting down, he handed over Imperial Decree, his identity card and his waistband.
"Please Director Li, please help me with the title registration and handover documents for Vermilion Bird Street's house as soon as possible."
"Viscount Su You're welcome. This is a gift from Your Majesty. How dare I neglect it."
Director Li took the document, checked it carefully, and asked his subordinate to get the title register and the house title file. He filled in the information quickly and stamped it with a seal.
In just half a stick of incense, a viscount identity book with a gold cover, a house title deed and a house deed were handed over to Su Fei with an eager tone.
"Viscount Su, the procedures have been completed. The specific location of the house is marked on this title deed. You can take it directly to Vermilion Bird Street to take over the house. There are already people from the Imperial Household Department waiting for the handover."
"Then it will be a big thank you Director Li."
Su Fei took the document and looked at it carefully.
The land deed clearly states "Vermilion Bird Street No. 13", and it also comes with a simple layout diagram of the house, with the three-in and three-out regulations clearly marked.
Leave Imperial Household Department, unexpected speed and efficiency
Su Fei rode towards Vermilion Bird Street.
This street is located in the core area of Jingcheng's West City. The houses on both sides have vermilion gates with various plaques hanging on them.
Some are engraved with "Vice Minister Zhang's Residence", and some are engraved with "General Chen's Manor". Obviously, almost all the people living here are important officials of the imperial court, and every house is full of style and majesty.
Su Fei According to the address on the land deed, he quickly found House No. 13. It was a house with an extremely large area. The vermilion gate was about ten feet high, with exquisite auspicious cloud patterns carved on the lintel, and a stone lion standing on each side, which was full of momentum.
Two Imperial Household Department guards stood at the door. Seeing Su Fei approaching, they quickly stepped forward to confirm their identities, and then respectfully opened the door.
"Viscount Su, your house has been cleaned and the furnishings inside are ready. Please come in and check."
Su Fei nodded and stepped into the house. The first thing that caught his eye was a spacious front yard with flat bluestone slabs on the ground and several tall ancient locust trees planted on both sides. Their lush branches and leaves blocked most of the sunlight.
Passing through the hanging flower door in the front yard is the middle yard. The main room of the middle yard is a spacious hall with five spacious halls. There are pear wood tables, chairs and screens in the house. Calligraphy and paintings are hung on the walls, and the furnishings are elegant.
There are three wing rooms on the east and west sides, which can be used as guest rooms or servants' quarters.
Going further back is the backyard. The backyard is more exquisite than the front yard and the middle yard. There is not only a small water pavilion, but also a pond dug next to the water pavilion. Lotus flowers are planted in the pond, and stone tables and benches are placed on the bank.
On the west side of the pond is a rockery. The rockery is covered with vines, and a trickle flows from the mountain. The sound of gurgling water is pleasant to the ear.
Next to the rockery is a small garden, planted with peonies, roses and other flowers of various colors, and the flowers are fragrant.
At the end of the garden are the stables and warehouses, which can accommodate ten horses.
The warehouse is also very spacious, enough to store miscellaneous items and gifts of silver and silk.
Su Fei walked around the house and felt quite satisfied.
This house is not only large in scale, but also has a very reasonable layout. It can not only meet daily living needs, but also has enough space for him to practice.
He walked to the garden in the backyard, stopped, and felt the luxury of the house, with a smile on his lips.
This house alone is worth hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.
With this house, it will be much more convenient to practice in the future.
Even if you make some big noise, you are not afraid that others will know about it.
Su Fei has in his hand the three hundred thousand taels of Silver Notes obtained from Guangling Commandery's trip, plus the one hundred thousand taels of Silver Notes that were rewarded today.
There are so many Silver Notes, nothing is wasted.
Su Fei is not a person who treats himself badly.
Anyway, Lord Lei gives himself a day off today, so there is no need to go to Pacification Office.
Just go to Goulan to listen to music and take care of the business of the brothel.
mountain road.
The rider was wearing a short fighting uniform, and the document bag behind his back was tightly tied with a cowhide rope. He galloped on the rugged mountain road, the horse's hooves stepped on the gravel, splashing dust, and his forehead was covered with sweat.
But he didn't pause for a moment. It was obvious that the official document he was carrying was very important.
After riding through the mountain road, a clear stream appeared at the end. The stream was gurgling and the water was clear.
The rider reined in the reins and saw that there were only trees and overgrown weeds around him, and not a single figure could be seen.
Then he got off his horse and tied it to an old tree on the bank.
He was really thirsty, so he rushed to the stream in a few steps, squatted down, picked up the stream water with both hands, and poured it into his mouth. The cool stream water slid down his throat, finally alleviating the heat along the way.
But at the moment when he raised his head and drank, his mind relaxed a little.
The calm stream suddenly made a "splash" sound, and water splashed in all directions.
A gray-robed figure emerged from the water.
